I sent a couple of replies to - I thought - the mailing list, but not seeing them show up, I went to look in my sent folder and it appears that when I hit the "r" key on my keyboard, it sent them to individuals rather than the list.

It's not you, it's your email client. Some handle list headers properly, and some don't.
When I used Thunderbird, I had to either "reply all" and remove the private address, or "reply" and then type in the list address. Using KMail (which I recommend highly, by the way), when I reply to a list message, it goes to the list. If I reply to a private message, it goes to the private address.
If you are using Thunderbird one needs (if required that is) to amend a control line in the Config Editor which will cause a reply to a list be only addressed to the list and without any CCs. When I find that line I'll post what that is -- but this info was posted in this forum a while back so you can do a search in the archives if you want.
